DBP, LandBank okays LGU

employees moratoriumCITY DADS here have a bit of good news to Ormoc govern-ment employees. City councilor Atty. Bennet Pongos, in theirpre-session caucus this Thursday, December 19, said that theDevelopment Bank of the Philippines (DBP) had approvedthe request of the City of Ormoc Government EmployeesAssociation (COGEA) for a 6-month moratorium on theirloans from the entity.

A week before, LandBank representatives also told thecouncil that their management has approved the same request,albeit only for three months. However, they are not sure whenthe moratorium would take effect as there was no instructionsyet on how their computerized system would deal with it. The

employees salary loans are automatically deductible from theirsalaries, it was learned.

Councilor Pongos said the recent news from DBP was re-layed to him by the manager herself. He told the SP secretariatto inform the city accounting ofce so that they could get a copyof the approved moratorium and make arrangements on how togo about it.

A week after Yolanda, ofcers of the COGEA asked the citycouncil to pass a resolution asking DBP and Landbank for a6-month moratorium on their loan amortizations.

Wife batterer detainedORMOC CITY A wife batterer was detained at the Ormoc

City Police Station I here after his wife reported to the police

that she was beaten and trampled on by her husband when

he came home drunk last December 18 in the evening, at

around 10:00.

Rubilyn, the wife, reported the battering incident to the police

which immediately picked up the drunk husband Francisco anddetained him at the station.

The next day, at the police station, the EV Mail chanced

upon Rubilyn who had blue-black bruises evident on her face.

However, when asked if she would pursue a VAWC complaint

against Francisco, she just gestured she would not.

PO2 Christopher Estrella, desk ofcer, said that according to

their investigation, the husband came home drunk and got angry

when Rubilyn asked for some money. However, Francisco denies

he was drunk and even turned the table on his wife, saying it

was she who got drunk attending the birthday party of a neigh-

bor. The policeman, however, said that they can only pursue a

case against Francisco if Rubilyn les. Apparently, she was not

interested to. By Paul Libres

was picking up the fruits ofhis extortion.

They also confiscatedfrom the suspect three moreextortion letters, one ask-ing for P 250,000 from ricetrader Gabino Sabino, P50,000 from scrap dealerJun Odan go and anotherfor P100,000 from anotherrice trader Junjie Omega.The suspect also had anice pick with him, whichJambiran said was deadlierthan a knife.

The conscated letterswere all handwritten inyellow pad paper, in mixed

a Marry Christmas, withthe warning that dangerwould befall them and theirfamilies if the request isrefused.

In an interview, the sus-pect said the letter he sent toEspina was his rst attemptat extortion. He said he hadbeen residing in Ormoc forquite a time already andhad a thriving business

penalties created a buzz inthe business community.

Luckily for the others,Rep. Lucy Torres-Gomezintervened for the belea-guered taxpayers and gotthe commitment of BIR

Commissioner Kim Hena-res to just let taxpayers paythe basic taxes and that theirofce would be consider-ate. This was on Novem-ber 26 and in between, sometaxpayers were alreadypenalized.

Otero himself, in a letterto the Ormoc Chamber, saysthat as early as the firstweek after typhoon Yolan-da, the Regional Ofce thruour Regional Director Atty.Diosdado R. Mendoza, re-

ceived instruction fromthe National Ofce to ac-cept payment of taxes ofwhatever types without thepenalties being paid.

This is why, he wassurprised why Larrazabalwas complaining in behalf

of the membership of theOrmoc Chamber. He addsthat our receipt issued toall taxpaying public whohave paid their tax obliga-tion beyond the due dateshave been stamped only

basic tax paid, in compli-ance with the order of oursuperiors.

After which he askedLarrazabal to furnish hisofce a list of the taxpayerswho have been imposedpenalties to be properlyinformed.

In an earlier meetingthat day of the dialogue,Larrazabal had the chanceto show RDO Otero a taxpayment imposed penaltyand surcharge. He said itwas only one of many thatthe chamber was able togather.

Atty. Otero, however,said he has reason to believethat the taxpayers who werepenalized were those whopaid at the bank. This wasafter he saw that Larraza-bals proof was remittedover Landbank.

In his letter, Otero at-tached a letter by districtcollection supervisor AdelfaC. Sia denying they everimposed penalties on latepayments in November.

Manuel Pascual, on theother hand, offered to helpOtero explain why the taxpayment made at the bank

had penalties. He said sometaxpayers avoid lining upat the BIR and pay directlyto the bank and there, havetheir penalties computedand paid.

Larrazabal, on the otherhand, has also sent a formalreply to Oteros letter tohim regarding the cham-ber resolution. In the saidletter, he clarifies that henor the chamber were notcomplaining and thatwhat was being appealed ofwas a period of breathingroom.

Christmas forgotten

man

Oh, Yolanda

SEE FR. ROY P. 5SEE MERCADO P. 5

YES, INDEED, let the spirit of Christmas be

a daily affair for all us. It should not just be

a yearly observance which we drown with a

lot of fanfare and merry-making. It should

not just be a historical event that we want to

remember with some magical nostalgia

Christmas has to be way of life itself. Its a

spirit, more than anything else, a truth of faith

that is supposed to animate every cell and pore

of our being. Its the marvellous reality that

whoever and however we are in this earthly life,

we are actually with Christ, conformed to him,

formally or informally, regardless of whether

we acknowledge it or not.Thats why Christmas always evokes joy

and peace. Amid the ruins left by the natural

calamities and the even bigger man-made di-

sasters due to our pride and attachments that

cause a Yolanda of partisan anger and hatred, a

storm surge of collective cruelty and insensitiv-

ity among ourselves, the spirit of Christmas is

what we need most urgently.

The radical objective reality about ourselves

is that we have been created by God in his im-

age and likeness, through the Son who later on

became man to re-create us after we have fallen

into sin and left alienated from God.

Christ is the very pattern of our being. If

we want to know who we really are, how we

ought to be, we should not look for references

other than Christ himself. And Christ is not

some distant, frozen model or idea that westrive to follow.

He is alive, and he is in us, he wants to be

with us always, he identies himself with us

whatever our situation may be and shows us

how to live that situation. This is what Christ-

mas is all about. Its Christ knocking at our

hearts door, asking to come in, to be born in

us and to live with us.

We have to be more aware of this reality of

Christmas. More than that, we have to learn to

step into that reality and live it as best as we

could, locking ourselves in it always as much

as possible and actively corresponding to it with

all the might that we have.

Lets learn the many precious lessons of

Christmas. Christ born in a manger, Christ who

is God emptying himself to become man and to

suffer all the inhumanity of man, etc.he showsus how to live in this life.

We have to learn how to be simple and

humble. These traits are never a sign of weak-

ness. On the contrary, they are a sure path to

our objective and original greatness that we

lost but was recovered and enhanced for us

through Christ.

This is the truth that we should relish to-

gether with whatever ham, cheese, beer and

lechon we will be having this Christmas. Thats

why the celebration of Christmas should have an

eminently theological character, going beyond

the social and sentimental.

We need to input the truths of faith to the

merely natural and human elements of the fes-

tivity that always have a way, given our weak-

ened condition, to intoxicate and desensitize us

to the greater wonders of our life.

WAIT. ISNT he that chap who blurs into the

backdrop of the Nativity scene? In a Christ-

mas creche, our eyes focus on the Child and

His Mother. Thats understandable. Theyre

the central gures in this drama. But are we

not missing what the person and presence of

Joseph signals?

Yes, says theologian Catalino Arevalo, SJ of

Loyola House of Studies. Thus, many Catholics

were surprised to read an earlier Time magazine

eight-page feature: Joseph, Husband of Mary

and Adoptive Father of Jesus.

It is anchored to the book that Presbyterian

minister Howard Edington wrote after the death

of his 22-year-old son titled: The Forgotten

Man of Christmas: And its theme is a fatherslove for his son.

Edingtons book ends with a meditation

on the power of love to ennoble the lover, es-

pecially if the beloved is God, Time says. A

model of Joseph, as believer, would pass muster

in almost any Christian church.

The French theologian Fr. Marie Dominique

highlights Josephs actions at Christmas, around

the Magi and the shepherds. When the Magi

enter the house where Christ is, they only see

Mary and Jesus, Matthew wrote. Joseph is not

mentioned.

But when the shepherds come to worship,

Luke says they see Mary, Jesus --- and Joseph.

This descendant of David joins the shepherds

in their reverence --- underscoring the role of

modern Christians. (Were) called, like Joseph,

to be silent saints who worship the Childin the manger and offer up our lives through

our work.

Many of us will never stand among great

political gures. But we join multitudes of

common workers like the shepherds. We stand

with the poor ol regular folks in the pew, a

people of silent adoration and submission to

Gods will.

Joseph took Gods son into his home in

Nazareth, thus providing Jesus with a normal,

loving family environment in which to grow,

Edington writes. Joseph took Gods son into

his heart, thus discovering a purpose for his

own life within the greater purposes of God.

He has become part of the bond of faith

and other things - between a father and son not

related by blood, Fr Arevalo points out. A line

from another book notes: As a father, Josephloved the Son who did not have his eyes the

Son of a Stranger.

We need to see Joseph in the context of the

often unremarked bond between fathers and

sons. The gospel narratives tell us little about

the the emotional impacts or of the people in-

volved in them. Luke says of Mary, little more

she did not understand, that she kept these

things and pondered over them in her heart.

Joseph goes through the gospel without

speaking a single word. But he acts in times of

crisis. Herods centurions were mounting to

slay the Child, when an angel told him: take the

Child and his Mother and ee to Egypt. And he

rose and took the child and his mother by nightand departed to Egypt and remained there until

the death of Herod.

And on return, he discovers that that Arche-

laus reigned in Judea in the place of Herod, his

father. Being warned in a dream, Joseph turned

aside to the remote village of Nazareth to shield

the Son and his Mother --- where Jesus grew in

wisdom, age and grace before God and man,

the gospels tell us.

There is also little recorded of those years in

Nazareth. We can only infer. Even as he loved

Mary greatly, he grew to love Marys boy, this

Son of a Stranger with a true fathers love.

Surely, Mary told him of the angels message

about this Boy, and what his mission and tasks

would be, about the pain and the glory in the

future.

There were chapters and chapters of day-to-day existence together, over and beyond the

few precious lines the gospels give us about

Bethlehem and Egypt and the long years in

Nazareth. Joseph was truly part of them all.

He learned from Joseph how to avoid

the knots in the wood, how to cut it along the

grain, and how to make sure it is already quite

dry so it will not unexpectedly split,. How did

Joseph transmit the deeper lessons? How is a

parents love both hard love and tender love,

and all the way true?

There is no record when and more impor-

tant-- how Joseph died. As a man lives, so

shall he die, an old adage says. Some therefore

infer that it may have been Mary who, with

tears, gently closed his eyes after he breathed

his last. He lay in the arms of the Carpenter who,

before the tomb of his friend Lazarus, wept.

JUST THIS week, we lost a family member to

the ravages of a heart attack. Last month, on

November 1, we also gained a new member,

Sophia Ysabelle, now ofcially nicknamed

Pyang-pyang. On November 4, just four

days before Yolanda wreaked havoc on our

lives, loves and homes, I turned 50. Ah, the

circle of life. Some go, some have just arrived

and some are in their crossroads.

That is why, despite Yolanda, I am not go-

ing to let this pag-umangkon ni Uring spoil

my Christmas. First, Christmas is not all about

colorful trees and lights. It is about a newborn

baby who would become the greatest preacher

in the world. He never wrote a chapter of the

Bible but his teachings about peace and lovewould resonate around the world.

This Christmas, we would not only be

celebrating Christs birth. We would also be

celebrating the gift of life, family and friends

with renewed vigor.

At this point, I would like to thank all my

friends and supporters of the EV Mail for your

endless generosity. Indeed, these have been

hard and trying times but as they say, life is a

beautiful journey and it has been made more

interesting with you painted to its tapestry.rrr

I am also happy to note that Tacloban City,

the city where I spent 15 years of my life, is

slowly getting up on its feet. It took Tacloba-

nons a longer time to recover from the ravages

of Yolanda, largely because of the extent of

devastation. If Ormocanons felt like it was theend of the world when they saw how Yolanda

practically blew to bits and pieces the houses of

the low and the mighty, its public and private in-

frastructures, how much more for Taclobanons?

And the people from Palo, Tanauan, Tolosa, etc.

for that matter.

I was told a former employees husband

died, not from Yolanda, but the next day because

his poor heart could not take the sight of dead

bodies strewn around in his neighborhood! That

was how shocking it was for them.

I could not even condemn the so-called

looters. I know of many men, some moneyed

at that, who were forced to go with the looters

to nd food and water.

However, some of the looters went over-

board. They ransacked and took appliances ,

iPads and things they could probably not affordto have in their lifetime. There were even talks

that there were syndicates behind the lootings.

Maybe, maybe not.

Some may nd the actions of the latter un-

forgivable. I dont.

An old Indian story says all men have two

beasts inside of him. One good and the other

evil, one full of love and the other of anger.

They are constantly ghting each other. Who

prevails in the end? The one that is fed the most.

What is important now is to learn the lessons

of Yolanda, and to embrace the future. After all,

Yolanda also showed us we are not alone. The

whole world came to embrace us, and if just

to repay this some other day, we must strive to

live and be alive. A good start is to forgive these

looters, whoever they are.

A good time for forgiving and forgettingwould be this Christmas, too. A Blessed Christ-

mas to all of us!

Talky talk

This Christmas, lets take account of the

challenges of our times. There are many disturb-

ing developments that we need to face always

with the spirit of Christmas. That would be the

spirit of truth given in charity and causing joyeverywhere.

At the moment, I can think of how many

young people today are trivializing the sacred-

ness of marriage and sex. Reports are rampant of

what are called hook-up relations, the prolifera-

tion of the so-called sele culture that promotes

egoism and vanity.

In the area of politics, we now have so

much inhuman partisanship that the different

characters involved are now into red-hot acri-

mony and bashing. There is now fanaticism in

the mainstream. Its the new normal, as if basic

courtesy and giving others the benet of the

doubt should be shot down on sight.

We are getting farther away from the true

spirit of Christmas. And the irony of it all is that

we like to aunt our Christmas greetings and

feastings. It has become a Christmas without

Christ. Sadder still is the fact that we dont seemto realize it. Our ignorance and inconsistency

appear invincible.

But I know theres always hope. Thats what

Christmas also tells us. Gods ways are like

water that through the most difcult mountains

can still manage to pass to the sea.

Let Christmas be everyday! Email: royci-

magala@gmail.com

Maybe. Who knows?

Joseph remains the forgotten man of

Christmas 2013, Fr. Arevalo points out. He is

also the forgotten man of so many the years

before Jesus began his own mission for the Fa-

ther; the years before Calvary and its wood and

its nails hammered by other hands than those of

the carpenter who rst taught the Boy about the

tests and travails of a mans world.

Yet even now, he lives. Our national hero

was given his name: Jose. He is ofcially

protector of the Church, patron of the Christian

home, working people and of Christian voca-

tions, specially to patron of journeys, and a t the

end of life, in a most s ignicant way, patron of

the dying.

(Joseph) was the rst to nd her thus, the

rst of all the world. And when her faint smile

called for him to take Him, for a breathless

moment he was rst to know there is no other

blessedness.

Merry Christmas.

CONVENTIONAL WISDOM says little

girls talk earlier while little boys are slow in

that department but a bit more advanced in

motor skills. But is the talking ability reallysex-linked or is it just a social perception?

Studies have conrmed that women talk

considerably more than men do, to about three

times as much. In fact, one study showed that

during an average day women spoke about

20,000 words compared to 7,000 words a day

for the average man.

But why is there such a disparity between

the sexes when it comes to talking?

Scientists showed that female brains have

higher levels of the protein FOXP2, substance

researchers have termed the language protein.

Previous studies have shown that FOXP2 is

essential for speech production in both sexes.

Researchers say that this is not the end-all-

be-all reasoning. Women probably talk more

because they have more to say. They work, take

care of children and entertain much more thanmen do. They also have ideas that need to be

expressed in ways that people can understand.

Talking more provides better explanations of

those ideas.

When women are done talking people get

what it is that they said. Women also have a lot

of feelings and want to express those as well.

Feelings can be complicated and it often takes

quite a bit of talking to fully express those

feelings.

If the brains of men and women are dif-

ferent it is for a reason - that is why research

is important not just to nd out why people

talk more but to discover cures for cancer and

Alzheimers disease. And perhaps even our

sometimes morbid fascination for tabloid news.

Speaking of news and as a footnote to

shared memories, there has been a lot of buzz

in Facebook, Twitter and in various hangoutson campus - about the sudden closing of Hon-

eycomb, a popular eatery at VSU. There have

been loud whispers that greed or envy (or both?)

triggered its closure. It may be true but only the

dominant players know for sure the real score.

A distinct possibility is that certain individu-

als thought that increasing the land rental as

agreed earlier is not enough and decided instead

to seize the Honeycomb building by canceling

the 25-year contract (for the use of the land). A

few people say it is a legal issue but what about

the moral aspects? The law is rmly anchored

alas on a moral foundation after all.

The Honeycomb owners are split on how to

handle this sticky situation. Should they buckle

up for a long, rough ride or just simply rely on

Divine Justice?

Honestly, it would not be a nancial burdenfor them to lose that sequestered building. They

have never placed too much importance on

material possessions anyway. And the recent

typhoon Yolanda violently showed the fragility

of life and properties even as it spared Honey-

comb of its wrath.

They would have preferred not to talk about

the controversy but words like Responsibility

and Truth plus the fact that silence means

implied consent, keep hounding them.

Time has a way of healing all wounds. But

the pain lingers if inicted by someone you

have cared for and trusted. To be told half-truths

and betrayed are twin daggers not unlike when

Julius Caesar lamented: Et tu, Brutus?. In the

end they know that there is, as always, a balanc-

ing of things eventually. Karma comes to mind.

WE FAILED, we feel pain, we sinned but

God treated us well in spite of our shortcom-

ings. If it wasnt for His great love, we willhave no reason to celebrate the good life.

The season of Christmas is a celebration

everyone is looking forward to, especially

the little children. Where they get excited to

receive and open their gifts. The adults are

also anxious what to give and how to give.

Everyone has reasons to celebrate no matter

how devastated we were in the past few days

from calamities and other unforeseen events.

Thanks God, we are alive!

We are merely steward of Gods resources.

We allow God to use us to be His instruments

and therefore we should always have hands

ready to serve. These past few days, people

from all over used generosity and charity to

open up the consciousness of people to serve

and to stretch an extra mile to share and give.

To heed to the call of God to serve, obedienceis our gift to Him.

To truly serve is to allow God to work in

us in a mysterious way. He allowed us to be

broken to serve others. We need to be selsh,

to sacrice, to feel the pain and die and be

born again to a new person in order for us to

be consoled with His grace and to be rewarded

with more. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ,

he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new

has come. 2 Corinthians 5:17

A heart that love. We are merely agents ofGod. We are here for a purpose. If you dont

know your purpose, examine yourself and ask

God. It is a great feeling to live in peace and

with peace in our hearts when we are lled with

love. Romans 12:9 Love must be sincere.

Hate what is evil. Cling to what is good.

My favourite quote in the Bible about love

is in 1 Corinthians 13:8- Love is patient, love

is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is

not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not

self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps

no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in

evil but rejoices with the truth. It always pro-

tects, always trusts, always hopes, and always

perseveres. Love never fails. But where there

are prophecies, they will cease; where there

are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is

knowledge, it will pass away.Need I say more? To all our avid readers

and benefactors, Merry Christmas to one and

all. May the baby Jesus in the manger bless us

all in this season of Advent, may you continue

to serve with love and love alone. I also look

forward that all of us will have a fruitful New

Years ahead. God bless you.

Matthew 2: 13 - 15, 19 - 23Now when they had departed, behold,

an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph ina dream and said, Rise, take the child andhis mother, and ee to Egypt, and remainthere till I tell you; for Herod is about tosearch for the child, to destroy him.

And he rose and took the child and hismother by night, and departed to Egypt,

and remained there until the death ofHerod. This was to full what the Lord hadspoken by the prophet, Out of Egypt have

I called my son.But when Herod died, behold, an angel

of the Lord appeared in a dream to Josephin Egypt, saying, Rise, take the child andhis mother, and go to the land of Israel, forthose who sought the childs life are dead.

And he rose and took the child and his

mother, and went to the land of Israel.But when he heard that Archelaus

reigned over Judea in place of his fatherHerod, he was afraid to go there, and be-ing warned in a dream he withdrew to thedistrict of Galilee.

And he went and dwelt in a city calledNazareth, that what was spoken by theprophets might be fullled, He shall be

TACLOBAN CITY - After a

four-day visit to the Philip-

pines and hopping to dif-

ferent places devastated by

Typhoon Yolanda, UNICEF

Executive Director Anthony

Lake said he was deeply im-

pressed by the spirit of the

people and the communities

working with the govern-

ment, United Nations and

other partners to rebuild

their lives and their future.

Lake visited Eastern Vi-

sayas on December 14 and 15

where he met and spoke with

children, teachers and parents

at numerous schools, learning

spaces, child-friendly tents and

vaccination sites in Leyte and

Eastern Samar.

He said the massive ty-

phoon disrupted the lives of

nearly six million children

and destroyed the homes of

1.4 million children and their

families.

While I had followed the

reports of progress closely

from UNICEFs New York

Headquarters, no statistics

can adequately capture the

physical and human challenges

that remain, said Lake. I

came here not only to see the

progress rst-hand, but also to

thank our UNICEF staff who

have been here from the start

and will continue to support

the rebuilding effort for the

long term.In a press statement, it

was learned that UNICEF

has mobilized experts from

all over the world to support

the relief effort, increasing the

staff on the ground to over 100

people to coordinate a plan for

recovery to strengthen services

for children.

This will include work-

ing with the government and

partners in supporting back-to-

learning efforts; strengthening

the child protection system,

working on reestablishing and

rehabilitating water systems

and the cold chain for delivery

of safe vaccines and providingservices to children threatened

by malnutrition.

Eight days after Yolanda

struck, the childrens agency

helped restore water to the city

and hopes to assist in restoring

safe water to more than 60

communities. The Philippine

government re-opened schools

in the area on December 2,

and principals and educators

were already working to help

children resume learning even

in the absence of books and

classrooms.

All over the country, com-

munities are working together

to clean schools; 193 class-room-sized tents have been

erected for close to 20,000

students, and over 50,000

children are benetting from

UNICEF school supplies.

UNICEF is providing child-

friendly tent
